We are pleased to announce the winner of the JCDD MDPI 2023 Best Ph.D. Thesis Award— Dr. Rebeca Piñeiro Sabarís of CNIC - Spanish National Center for Cardiovascular Research / Centro Nac. Investigaciones Cardiovasc. Dr. Piñeiro Sabarís' research explores the effects of Gata6STOP/+ mutants on the development and function of the aortic valve, concluding that they likely underlie Bicuspid aortic valve (BAV) and similar valve defects that have become highly prevalent among the aging population.

All articles in Water MDPI (ISSN: 2073-4441) Vol 16, Issue 15, are now freely available to access, read and download: https://brnw.ch/21wNpO1 COVER STORY: The demand for pharmaceuticals and personal care products (PPCPs) has increased wastewater from manufacturing facilities due to higher production volumes, stringent cleaning protocols, and facility expansions. This wastewater contains volatile organic compounds, aromatic amines, and sulfa drugs, posing health risks. Activated carbon removes PPCPs due to its high adsorption capacity, eliminating pharmaceuticals without generating toxic by-products. This study by Toronto Metropolitan University investigates the adsorption of pharmaceuticals using granular activated carbon, assessing total organic carbon reduction. By applying various isotherm and kinetic models to multicomponent wastewater under batch conditions, the study reveals adsorption mechanisms and offers practical insights for efficient contaminant removal.

Ozempic, a GLP-1 receptor agonist, was originally developed to treat type 2 diabetes. However, it is now increasingly being used as a treatment for obesity in those with and without diabetes. The use of the drug has become increasingly popularized across social media platforms, where perceived effects of the drug on mental health are also highlighted. A novel study published in the Open Access journal Brain Sciences MDPI and cited in CNN aimed to see if GLP-1 receptor agonists were perceived as affecting mental health across social media platforms. The authors explain that the relationship between the medication and mental health is a complex one, and there are many factors that contribute to mental health. This includes pre-existing conditions, and possible reciprocal relationships between the two as well as individual differences. Nonetheless, there does seem to be a perceived effect of the drug on mental health. Further research is required to understand the mechanism of action and complexities of this relationship to fully elucidate how the drugs can contribute negatively, or positively to mental health.

Every day, women and girls face barriers to education or career progression. Quality education for and participation in the education system by women is essential to achieving equality and fulfilling their human rights. Open Access removes cost barriers to research, increases visibility and impact for women researchers, and leads to more cutting-edge research to tackle complex issues.
